HC Deb 01 August 1972 vol 842 c59W
28. Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether he will introduce legislation to permit Industrial Tribunals in appropriate cases to make interim awards of compensation and then to adjourn such cases for compensation for unfair dismissal, where the applicant satisfies the tribunal that he has sought to find reasonably suitable alternative employment but has failed to do so and is unemployed at the date of the tribunal hearing.

Mr. Chichester-Clark

No. My right hon. Friend does not think that the increased burden falling on the tribunals under such an arrangement would be justified.
